No because I'm not over 60 and use hotmail.
Hey, I'm not 60 (yet) and have two old hotmail accounts. One is the address I use when something requires an email address and I don't want to give one of my real email addresses. The other was the one I originally used for CF
 
MeanDean, I'd recommend switching your e-mail over to gmail. It's much easier and very reliable.

On other old people and technology issues, this morning midway through breakfast my phone decided I would rather read Yahoo in Spanish. After clearing my browsing history I was able eventually do a Google search on Yahoo and get a page which gave me the choice of English or Spanish

I think turning the internet over to the UN may have these kinds of consequences. ;)

Has anyone had any experience on USAJobs.gov? I'm having trouble looking for internships, every agency I'm looking into says apply at USAJobs but then when I look into it only shows full time positions.

Very little experience here with just applying to be an ATC. If our favorite Dr. in Chemistry is lurking I think he has some experience. Not to mention our wonderful govt employees JC and Tall.

If you look on the left, you'll see "Work Type". If you click the drop down menu, "Internships" should come up as one of the choices. A lot of Executive branch agencies probably just use "Apply at USAJobs" as a generic message. Our offices use USAJobs for paid positions but not for unpaid internships. The interns are hired by posting ads through a college. I did a quick search of USAJobs in the Des Moines area and nothing came up within 20 miles but 11 internships came up within 200 miles.

You may have better luck going to a "Government and Nonprofits" career fair or looking for messages about visiting government recruiters on bulletin boards or in publications.

Last time I went to the career fair I tried to start up a conversation and all I got back from like 4 agency's was "look for online applications". A lot of these internships don't even tell you when application dates are.
 
Just had a meeting with a great engineer and guy but thought of some people on here when I actually looked at how he was dressed. Taped up glasses, pocket protector that was loaded up, dress shirt, dress pants and tennis shoes.

Is your major law enforcement or something like that?

I'm assuming it was a short sleeve dress shirt.
